I guess just some general softsynth demos would do
just fine.

What I'd like to know is - how good are these soft
synths? If you go to URL below, you can hear Van
Halen's "1984" intro song that was played with
Oberheim OB-Xa. What I'd like to know is - is it
possible to play that song with software synthesizers?

I've been playing guitar since 1984 and I do not know
much about hardware synthesizers and I know even less
about software synthesizers. But I wanna learn this
stuff!
